Forcing people to pay taxes when they have had no say in making the law that created the tax. American colonies were angry about paying taxes that were passed by the British Parliament because they had no representatives that voted on the tax. This proclamation prevented many colonists from moving west onto the land that Britain won in the war. It was done by Britain to allow the Native Americans to keep the land and stop attacking the settlers who wanted to move there. This was a tax law that said the colonists had to pay taxes on all printed paper including stamps, newspapers, pamphlets, marriage licenses, and playing cards.

Why did the city council pass new laws to restrict the sale of books on the street? What did the booksellers have to do to compl

Vadim26 [7]

The reason why the city council had to pass new laws to restrict the sale of books on the street was due to the complaints by the residents.

<h3>The complaints about the sale of the books on the street</h3>

The complaints ranged from the fact that the tables were an obstruction on the streets and the fact that it was an eyesore.

The people referred to the bookseller as a nuisance given that he persisted despite the fact that the streets were congested already.

In order to have people comply, the booksellers were restricted to the use of just one table in the sale of their books.
